Protect my Peace

Verse 1**

I been waking up lighter, cutting cords clean

No more fake love living rent-free in my dreams

Smiles so sweet but the vibe so strange

Had to rearrange, had to change my lane

You clap when I win but your eyes don’t shine

Low-key hoping I fall behind

I see the whispers when I leave the room

So I let that energy meet the broom

**Pre-Chorus**

I’m not bitter, I’m just wise

I can read between the lines

If it costs my soul the fee

That’s too high a price for me

**Chorus**

I protect my peace, guard my glow

Cut ties clean, let the fake ones go

No more stress tryna play pretend

I don’t need no frenemy friend

If the vibe ain’t real, I release

Choose my heart over history

Circle small, mind at ease

I protect, I protect my peace

**Verse 2**

Used to overgive, overstay

Let disrespect just slide away

Now my boundaries loud and clear

If it’s not love, it’s not welcome here

Energy don’t lie, I trust that

No more doubling back, no more combat

You can keep the shade and the side talk

I’m aligned now, that’s a high walk

**Pre-Chorus**

I forgive but don’t forget

Wish you well from a distance, yeah

Love from far, that’s the key

You not coming where I’m meant to be

**Chorus**

I protect my peace, guard my glow

Cut ties clean, let the fake ones go

No more stress tryna play pretend

I don’t need no frenemy friend

If the vibe ain’t real, I release

Choose my heart over history

Circle small, mind at ease

I protect, I protect my peace

**Bridge**

No access to my energy

If you draining me intentionally

Doors closed, that’s growth not hate

Sometimes distance elevates

Silence louder than revenge

I don’t gotta prove or defend

Level up in quiet streets

Success and peace — that’s my beat

**Final Chorus (Extended)**

I protect my peace, that’s law

No more picking at old scars

If you switch sides, stay there please

I’m too grounded for the breeze

Real ones only in my reach

No more lessons I gotta teach

Circle tight and drama cease

I protect, I protect my peace

**Outro**

Yeah…

Wish you healing, wish you growth

Just not sitting at my table no more

My light too bright to dim for anyone

Peace is power — and I won.
